This little Monster is called Simca Rallye 3 and is quite the rare (but very popular) 70´s French Sports Car that has been converted into proper Racing Cars through the years both for Rallying and HillClimb Racing. This one is now powered by a 1300cc Engine unit capable of around 160Hp, moving only 675Kg and driven by Romain Richardeau, who might be the current best driver of these quirky things.
At Osnabruck Bergrennen 2019 it certainly was possibly to see that as he posted a 1:05.889, positioning him above many Lancer Evo, BMW and many other much more powerful machines. And other than that, there´s the tremendous driving style. And for that just watch the Onboard footage. You will get a proper idea on how quick someone can be with something with little over 150Hp and a manual H-Pattern 5-speed Gearbox...

True French nostalgia: Remember my trips to France in my youth, where I saw a lot of rear-engined Renaults and Simcas tuned insanely, dragging their oilpans over the tarmac because they where lowered at the rear, with puffed wheelarches, racing around on the mountain roads like madmen!

We had such a car back in 1974 (I was 11 then). It was a 1000 Spécial with 60 hp. We kept it for 4 years. Nothing but trouble and rust. We never solved the cooling issue. Everything was replaced with a Rallye 2 cooling system. No luck. It kept itself at the brink of overheating (110 C). Even with 60 hp it was fast in its day, but dangerous and unreliable. Everything went wrong on it.

@raypurchase801 Год назад

I had two Simcas in the late 70s. Dreadful cooling problems.

@ronaldderooij1774 Год назад

@@raypurchase801 Somehow nice to hear that we were not the only ones. My father was a car mechanic and he says it was the only thing ever he was not able to solve. He was genuinly troubled by that (I guess his professional honor was hurt). What made it even more mysterious was that the overheating just started one day, from one moment to the next. Did you find what caused it?

@ZeldriFR 5 лет назад

What's the type of gearbox is he using ? Is that a kind of semi-automated upshifting gearbox ?? Because he only used the clutch for down shifting, or he's actually so good that he got the perfect timing for shifting without clutch ???

@TheThunderwars 5 лет назад

@@CarlosGarcia-ze6rt Probably still using carbs. I know an engine tuner specialized in tuning classic mini engines, and on the side he also has some bmw of the 70's and a simca rallye 3. He uses dual 40 DCOE weber, an extremely aggresive camshaft ( around 300° duration), High comp ratio as well as a well thought out cylinder head. It brags around 150 bhp but really won't budge under full throttle below 4000 RPM, and the idle is extremely rough ( anything below 1500 and you feel like the engine is dying). Though, when rev to its nuts ( 9000 RPM, sometimes a bit more) it sounds amazing.

@piotrch0 5 лет назад

[Serious] Wouldn't a rear wing prevent the rear end from sliding out the corners?

@HillClimbMonsters 5 лет назад

Piotr Chylarecki Yes, but given the car has not that much power it would also impact straight line performance too much. So the best solution is to drive it on the limit of traction and have as less drag as possible when accelerating 😉
